Title: Pokemon: Johto Journeys- Dreams and Nightmares [OOC+SU]

Pokemon: Johto Journeys- Dreams and Nightmares

(http://wickedcold0.webs.com/photos/Pokemon-Stuff/JohtoMap%5B1%5D.png)

Johto, the eternal land. Situated west of Kanto and south of Sinnoh, the region boasts the remains of the most ancient civilazation and secrets, if revealed, would change the history of the world forever.

Plot

The vision fades to 15 years ago. . . A boy leaves New Bark Town on an errand for Professor Elm . A red-haired boy steals one of Elm's three Pokémon, and challenges him as the boy's journey across Johto continues. A revived Team Rocket from Kanto, using plans formulated three years prior, enrages many Gyarados, including a red one, at the Lake of Rage; they then proceed to take over the Goldenrod Radio Tower in a desperate attempt to contact Giovanni . When they are defeated and Giovanni fails to return due to Celebi's intervention, the interim leader, Archer, vows to never again re-form Team Rocket. The boy continues to gather Johto's Badges, eventually gaining all eight and traveling to the Pokémon League at Indigo Plateau in Kanto, later to defeat the current Champion and get into the Hall of Fame.
But his most notable effect on Johto lies in his ability to encounter all three of the legendary beasts , as well as summon the Unown, Lugia and Ho-Oh after their long absence. A new chapter in the region's history begins. . . .

15 years have passed. The boy, or as his name was in the Hall of Fame, Ethan helped the Pokémon Rangers and Professors to bring peace and tranquility to Johto and revive and revitalise the region. Under his efforts and guidance, pokemon from other regions were bred and released into the wild. Foundations of a Safary Zone, Observatory, Museum, etc were made and trade flourished. Johto was booming. Seeing his dream come true, he left for Mt. Silver to face the Greatest Trainer of All Time, Red (or Ash), but was never heard from again.. Not in 5 years. . . . .

In the meanwhile, one young man watched over the world. His name was Aerion.. Most importantly, he was the son of Giovanni. Mad at his father's dissapppearance, mae at Archer's betrayal, mad at the worthlessness of Team Rocket, the silent warrior left off with a few loyal Rockets, ones that would lay down their life for him. Hiding from the world and other Rockets, they and their pokemon began the unimaginable training and technological advancement. . . .

Ofcourse Johto was too busy with itself. From the ashes of Team Rocket.. Rose the unbeatable Team Neo. Led by the vengeful Aerion.. They are waiting for the perfect moment to strike at the heart of Johto.. And claim what is rightfully theirs. Can anybody stop this madness? Or will Johto burn in the fires of rage? Will Ethan ever return? The Nights begin..

YOU

After graduating out last year, Professor Elm Jr. has taken over his father's role. After getting to know about Team Neo, he is calling ten persons from all around the region and beyond who he believes have great potential to become a successful Pokémon trainer. He gives these young people a Pokemon to care for and raise, as well as a Pokedex which they may fill and ten Pokeballs to catch wild Pokemon with.
You are one of the ten trainers selected by Professor Elm Jr., and have made your way to New Bark Town to thank the Professor as well as receive your very own partner Pokémon along with a state of the art Pokédex! You then begin your journey around the region of Johto, visiting all areas within the region on your way to obtaining all eight badges and competing in the annual Pokemon League! On your journey you may meet up with, and even travel with your fellow players, encounter some very powerful trainers, and also fight against some Team Neo Grunts. But be careful when facing them, they rarely use Pokemon, instead, they use some powerful weapons that may take your precious partner's lives if you're not careful! They've taken enough Pokemon lives already, someone's got to put a stop on them!

RULES (NO ESCAPE.. SORRY)

§1. No Godmodding or Bunnying allowed. You can't hit everything and dodge everything.

§2. You control only your character and any NPC you create.

§3. Be practical. If there is a pokémon with 1% chance of appearing, you can't meet it on every post.

§3. Remember Quality>Quantity. Your post should be atleast an hundred words big.

§4. If you want to capture a pokémon, keep the ball rocking at the end of the post. The GM (and Random Number God) will decide your luck.

§5. Put "I likez Mudkipz" in your SU to let me know you went through all of this.

§6. When you reach the end of a chapter, wait for the GM to start a new one.

§7. When you battle with a pokemon, don't give it any moves it cannot have at that level. For moves at certain level, refer to Bulbapedia.

To be continued. . . .

Wow, that's what I call an improved sign up form. Not nearly as complete as my rol files, but in the way to it. Wanna some alignment too? No? Tsk, that Neutral Evil char will have to wait...

The Rule §2 have been modified. It is now possible to control public NPCs (Prof. Elm Jr., his assistants, Gym leaders, shopkeepers, nurses, and so on). And you can bunny a bit Team Neo grunts, but only when I introduce them. (Want to date the hot pokemon center Nurse? Go on, have fun but keep it low) Have a look at the modified rules.

And this thread is now known as the [OOC+SU] thread, you know, because I'll have an IC thread set up to keep all the OOC discussions out of it which will just contain RPs.

Post by: Cren on March 05, 2013, 07:38:15 AM
Anybody know the name of Prof. Elm's son? Otherwise we need to make up something.

And keep the SUs coming. Any suggestion/criticism is much welcome. This RP is an experiment.. And the first time I'm GMing anything like it. Also send me a PM if you want to Co-GM, want to add anything to the storyline, add Team Neo characters, anything.. I can't do it all alone.

I guess I could try to lend you a hand eventually. However, this is going to be way slower than regular WW in both recruiting players and events course. People tend to avoid very long games for that, I've seen it in a similar game about AVP.

Anyway, I'll submit my file on the following days, or at least that's what I hope.

I would agree with that. I like Ash Ketchum the older, original Pokemon :)

Speaking of Pokemon, can we choose Pokemon at the beginning or we wait until GM RolePlay/Update in?

Post by: Cren on March 06, 2013, 08:53:10 AM
Hmm.. No new pokemon then? Since this RP occurs in Johto, we would have the 251 original pokemon.. How about only some new additions like Magmortar, Electavire, Porygon Z, etc of the like? Only new pokemon are the evolutions of Gen II pokemon?

You start as a Pokémon trainer who has been called by Prof. Elm Jr. After getting to his lab, you are allowed to choose a starter pokemon out of 10 (I'll post the list of starters later).

Remember, starters are first come first serve. The player whose SU is accepted first gets the most choices (10), and the 10th player would have no option but to take the starter left over (just like Ash, who had no choice but to take the Pikachu).

Nope.. Its a good ol RP game. And I'm sure it is much more interesting than werewolf (if you compare those crazy hunts with random encounters, GA protecting your would-be-prey with frustating escapes from pokeball, mine one got the edge over it)

STARTERS

Prof. Elm Jr. has decided to let his chosen trainers a pokémon partner of their choice. All the pokémon were bred at the lab with utmost care and love, so even trainers that have no experience would have no problem. He is offering the following pokemons:

I would like to say one thing, don't choose any pokémon on basis of their power, choose whichever you like the most. Each of the pokémon comes with two moves, one natural and one move that they never learn in real pokémon world (i.e in the anime, games, so on). So fair warning, choose that pokémon which you like the most from the list.

And if your IC posts have an effect on me, I would be generous to offer your pokemon another cool move

For those who are not accustomed to the first 251 pokemon, have a look at Bulbapedia.

The starters from top are Chikorita (grass), Cyndaquil (fire), Totodile (water), Pichu (pre-evo of Pikachu) (electric), Cleffa (pre-evo of Clefairy) (normal), Houndour (dark/fire), Tyrogue (pre-evo of Hitmon lee/chan/top) (fighting), Smoochum (pre-evo of Jynx) (Ice/Psychic), Sandshrew (Ground), Dodou (Normal/Flying).

Name: Gary Oak Junior

Sex: Male

Age: 13 yrs

Appearance: (how your charry looks like) A picture (don't show someone extremely cool, seriously) or at least 10 sentences or more.

(http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/b/bd/Gary_Oak.png/245px-Gary_Oak.png)

Personality: (how is your charry, his behaviour, etc) At least 10 sentences or more.
He is caring due to his childhood experience. He looks similar to his father when they at same age. He is of competitive nature, is quite popular with the girls of his neighbourhood, he loves pokemon.(His father influence and perhaps some inherited nature  ;) )

Background/History (Where did he/she grew up, how was his/her childhood, etc) At least a paragraph of 15-20 lines): His father is Gary Oak Senior, who was the primary rival of Ash Ketchum. After his father won against Ash Ketchum in a fight, his father has setup a family home in Johto region where he grew up. His childhood is full of memories of playing with his father's Pokemons Umbreon, Arcanine and Nidoking. The Pokemons are left to guard his family home during his father frequent Researcher trips and would protect the Junior from harm. There is an incident where Tentacruel and Gyarados gone crazy due to water pollution. His father Pokemons were hurt badly when they tried to stop these attacks and had to be sent to Nurse Joy for healing. From there, he learnt how to care for Pokemon, even though they are his father Pokemons.

Good work Ketchum, you are ACCEPTED. Choose the pokemon of your choice from the list.

If you can, add the reason of why the Professor called him to have a pokémon. His father's reputation, or his love for pokémon, which was the most appropiate reason? Or something completely different?
Title: Re: Pokemon: Johto Journeys- Dreams and Nightmares [OOC+SU]
Post by: Ketchum on March 14, 2013, 06:57:11 AM
Seeing his good caring nature, if not as competitive as his father used to be, the Professor knows that he would one day grow up and learn his true calling. His father Researcher reputation(or should we say flirting nature inherited) clearly precede him as many girls of his neighbourhood always keen to follow him around. His look is quite handsome, just like his father was at his young age.

Say Hi to Pichu, I choose you! :D

If you mean bad as evil and crazy as straight outta the asylum, then its a no no. Characters can be a bit short in the head, low level loony, bullies, things like that. If your charry is evil or lunatic, why would Prof. Elm Jr. trust him/her with a pokémon? :)

Well, I obviously did not mean creating a character with a base of hatred, three spoons of madness and a pinch of psychosis. I was speaking more about the bully with such competitivity that it becomes an unhealthy obsession, that sort of guy. Don't worry, we don't want some Sauron trying to rule Johto with a bunch of Machamps, do we? ;)

Name: Hiro Watari

Sex: Male

Age: 17 years

Personality: Aggressive, arrogant, egocentric. He thinks that he deserves to get to the top, and anyone in the way is nothing but an obstacle. Though slightly more intelligent than the standard, his troublesome personality makes him to make mistakes and enter knotty situations more often than not. He is extraordinarily competitive and nothing scares him more than his failure, what makes him prone to cheating and resorting to all kinds of dirty tricks when faced with a challenge. He usually behaves cold and distant to others, making people to feel weird in his presence. If pressed or in a dire situation he may behave erratically and unpredictably, so silky touch is advised when dealing with him. In spite of all this, or precisely because of that, he is easy to manipulate under certain conditions, and may consider temporal alliances with others to reach his goals, even though he usually does not really trust anyone.

Background/History: Son of a researchers couple, he was born at one of the expeditions of his parents, and thus entered the world in a permanently changing environment. Never remaining for longer than a few months in a place, he never made any real or lasting friendship, making him to search refuge in his family instead.

But the researcher job requires an extraordinary amount of time and attention, so his parents barely could give him a few minutes over the course of the day. Each day feeling lonelier, he made a final attempt to find a healthy way to invest his time, and wandered into the open world for the first time in his life. However, when trying to play with a herd of Rattatas he was bitten and hunted down all the way home, where his parents healed him and scolded him very severely.

Concerned by his son's growing unstability, his parents decided to finally settle down in the outskirts of New Bark Town, though they continued their job all over the world, leaving him alone for extended periods of time. It was this final situation what triggered his mentality of blaming others for his loneliness, amongst them his parents. He never tried to get along with any other kid in the town, though he often bullied or intimidated them when he felt he had something to gain.

He also overcame his fear of exploring and interacting with the wildlife, although he is still wary of Rattatas and avoids trusting for real on any other than himself. The day he turned 17, he finally decided that his time in the town was over, and answered the call of Professor Elm Jr. In spite of his well known personality the Professor decided to award him a Pokémon, feeling that (hopefully) he would learn to understand and care for others while caring for his Pokémon and meeting new people all over the world. Will that become true? We shall see it...

Please don't take this as boasting, but I have played quite a bit of rol games before, and have done my fair share of complex SUs/files/backgrounds. It's only experience, nothing else.

And about the pokémon... I totally see him with a Cyndaquil or a Totodile, but I'm going to have trouble choosing between them both. Nah, in their final stage Totodile is more threatening and impressive. I'll stick with Totodile. That's the one I chose back then, too. Ah, I feel my teen years covering me again...

Team Plasma? Team Neo? Sorry, my last game was the Sapphire version. That picture was the only one I could find that gave me the overall badass impression I was looking for. Now I see why ;D If that's a problem, I can change it, I don't want to spoil your game.

Yay! Now, when does the real IC game start? Are we waiting for more players, or how's it?

Lol.. I think there have been a misunderstanding. The IC thread is already open.. All you have to do is start posting the RPs. :)

Not really, I just thought that it was there BUT still not open for posts. Much like Spellmaster :)

Will post my RolePlays once my Battlemaster is becoming more stable. The DNS stuff is still around ;)

Now I um, starting to write my RolePlay.

By the way, one question about NPC. We can RolePlay our own NPC inside our own house(Pokemon, parents, siblings if any, etc)? I understand we cannot RolePlay the Professor however :P

You fully control the NPCs you create.. But the public NPCs like Prof. Elm, his aides, Ethan's mom, Gym leaders and so on can be bunnied only a bit.. For example, you can rp that you caught the professor sleeping, but can't take him with you on a stroll (at least not outside New Bark Town). You can't use them for your own purpose but can rp the way they interact with you.

To rephrase the last part of my post.. Every public/prominent NPC have a set role to play in a specific chapter (unless I post an event in that chapter which adds to their role). You can't control them, only bunny them a bit. For example, in Chapter 1 Prof. Elm's role is to hand out the starters and nothing else. One can RP in a vast number of ways of getting the pokémon from him. But you can't RP anything other than that with him..

No problem Sonya, I know what its like working 40 hrs a week ;).

@Ketchum- When are you gonna post? Your furry friend has already rolled out, he can't move on until you post (I just post levels gained after a battle, capture results, events and the like)

Isn't receiving a Pokémon an event? Or do you hand them out once the three of us arrive there?
Title: Re: Pokemon: Johto Journeys- Dreams and Nightmares [OOC+SU]
Post by: Cren on April 01, 2013, 08:23:28 PM
Nope. You *yourself* RP the way you get the pokemon (plus 10 pokeballs and a high-tech pokedex) from the professor.. I have no say in that unless you specifically want to. And if you want, you can double post too, that would hasten the speed the RP is currently going at.

R.I.P animals who die from human conspiracies. The IC post is in honor of the pygmy elephants who died from poisoning. I literally cried when I first saw the picture and the news.

Now that i am checking i am far from New Bark Town.

Should i use Space Magicaka, Auto Bus?(http://www.messentools.com/images/emoticones/frutas/www.MessenTools.com-Frutas-wizard.gif)

Or RP all the way Route 44 ->Ice Path ->Blackthorn City ->Route 45->Route 45->Route 29->New Bark Town?

Hell it would better if i started right away from here...  :-\

Sonya, there are a few ideas I can think of.

1) Team Rocket blasts you to the sky and you land on New Bark Town. A joke really :P

2) You take wrong bus/flight.

3) You are on hot balloon and it went down at New Bark Town.

I can see your Introduction RolePlay going be interesting. Think creatively how you want to land in New Bark Town 8)

Post by: D'Espana on April 17, 2013, 01:18:23 AM
Those are some nice suggestions. Other one is a Wailord swallowing you in wherever you are and spitting you in New Bark Town. It has happened before, if you don't believe read the Bible ;D

(RIP elephants, and as of actually runners as well. Sheesh...)

Rest in peace elephants. Sad :'(

Sonya, you can also mention in your RolePlay about this.

4) Jigglypuff draws on your face and sing you to sleep. When you wake up, you are literally at New Bark Town with no idea how you get there.

5) Someone send you to New Bark Town Nurse Joy due to you have some accident(something traumatic that make you do not recall the previous night)

Perhaps tomorrow I will RP getting my Pokémon and setting off for travel. Not in the weekend, though. I ALWAYS end up being busier than in the normal week at weekends.

I posted my next interaction now. By the way, Cren. Do we get to choose which Pokemon to catch or fight when we on the road? Or GM roll a dice to see which Pokemon we encounter? ???
